Mystery
When Cornelius McPherson, a former highway maintenance man,
finds himself trapped in a tunnel he helped create decades
earlier, he’s horrified to discover the well-preserved,
frozen arm of a fellow worker. McPherson remembers a secret
the man whispered to him—that he knew who assassinated John
F. Kennedy. When McPherson also turns up dead, CJ Floyd
steps in to sort out the details, in the process going on
his own hunt for the presidential assassin. CJ’s journey is
a retrospective trek that has him fielding CIA plots, mafia
dons, and Cuban conspirators. But it’s not until he realizes
that there were two attempts on Kennedy’s life prior to his
actual assassination in 1963—one in Chicago and one in
Tampa—that he’s able to hone in on who might have really
killed the president. The investigation takes him from the
pristine mountains of Colorado to the muggy swamps of
Louisiana, and ultimately leads him to a grieving,
long-silent, Louisiana backwoods Creole mother who may hold
the key to what happened. Robert Greer brings his trademark
complex but never confusing plot, colorful cast of
characters, and stylistic brio to one of America’s enduring
mysteries in this dazzling whodunit.
